Where can you go to drive through a Volcano?

I was going to book a St Lucia holiday in Summer for the family, but we decided to wait and book one for Christmas. So now i have just booked myself a great St Lucia holiday, after the one i went on last year, i decided to go back again. If i hadn’t had so much to do when i came back from my holiday, i would have written about this sooner. However now I am booking a holiday back to the same place, I thought I would share my experience with you.

We landed at an airport called the Hewanorra airport, a very modern and classy airport. The Hotel that I had booked us into was called the Le sport. St Lucia has a lovely forest that covers most of the island, and we went on two safaris through the jungle, other than that we spent a lot of our time at the beach.

I had heard that there was a Volcano on St Lucia, yet i never new that we could visit it, let alone drive into it. The Last time i went to a Volcano was in Greece, near the island of Kos. Ever heard of driving through a volcano, well here is where you can do it, the St Lucia Sulphur Springs. This Volcano is Dormant, and produces a very strong smell of sulphur; apparently if the smell disappears then the Volcano is getting ready to erupt!

In a Volcano you know it is hot, but when you see land and soil boiling in the earth, it makes you realise. After a tour guide fell into one of these boiling puddles, walking through the Volcano was called off and people were no longer allowed to go through on foot. So now you may only drive through it on the designated path. There were some very dashing and beautiful colours sprayed all over the Volcano, and the bubbling sulphur mud pits were quite a sight. If the opportunity should ever arise, then should definitely try this. Driving through the Volcano was a rush with the Tour guides, so i am looking forward to it again.

For St Lucia holidays, Barbados holidays and Christmas holidays, you should consider contacting a tour operator immediately.
